jdw Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 And you're suppose to say stuff about these matches. Content, you know. If I can ramble some lines about mediocre WWF matches over on tOA, you certainly can ramble about the stuff you like! John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted December 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 I try to say something about some of the matches. I should probably comment on more of them, but honestly my goal has been to watch as much stuff as possible and then talk about everything all at the same time. Maybe there's a balance ...

goodhelmet Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 HEy John, if you look through the first few pages of this thread then you will see that Loss has done his fair share of commenting on matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted December 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 John's right though, I do need to comment more these days than I have been. There's a whole message board's worth of stuff to discuss in just the snowflakes thrown around in this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdw Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 Even if it's throwaway comment, it's worth tossing them out. It was one of the things earlier in this thread that gave it some spirit - one comment could draw in others to yammer as well. Lord knows I'm going to have a lot of throwaway comments in the WWF 80s thread over on tOA. It's one reason why I'm taking it a match-a-day _and_ also working on getting other people to toss out potential matches worth watching. I want to force myself to plug away on something consistently rather than go manic on it - a big massive spurt of comments then burning out on it. If I get into a comfy zone with that, I'll likely open up another thread on something else. Either Crockett-Turner, or Other Japan, or perhaps 1993 All Japan which I really need to do something with. But want to see how this goes before biting off more. I think that's one of the things being discussed in the other thread about getting more discussion going on around here - you just need some people to constantly plug away. Consistent plugging has advantages over big flurries and then long stretches of nothing. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdw Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 One other quick add: It is *really* useful to others (such as me) for the Big Collectors (such as Will) to toss up even brief notes on things they just picked up or put in comps that: (a) haven't gotten much pimping in the past ( B ) really caught the eye of that collector as something nifty for whatever reason I know that some will read it as pimping their own shit. In a few words - "Fuck them". If Will gets in some stuff, is converting it, and sees a Barry vs. Tully that really choice and folks aren't talking about, even a simply note like this is *freaking great*: "In the latest stuff I'm converting, there was a Tully Blanchard vs. Barry Windham match from early 1988 that aired on ____. This is a really good match, with both Barry and Tully in top form." Two sentences. Throwaway comment rather than a detailed discussion about the match. But it instantly opens a few eyes of folks that it's a match to look for. The Savage-Steamer from Toronto is *exactly* like that. Someone over on DVDVR mentioned it after the voting period. He did it with more sentences than two, bit same point. It's always stuck in my mind. Now that I'm going through the WWF stuff, and inviting folks to point to more stuff that should be watch, it was one of the first matches I put in my "Need to track down" section of the thread. If you see something that's good, or that you know certain folks will like (such as a Backlund match for Backlund Fans, a Tully match for Tully Fans, a Steamer match for Steamboat Fans, etc), do not be shy about mentioning it somewhere *nor* worried about not writing enough. Just toss it up on one or more of the boards you frequent. Don't be shy about mentioning it in *several* places. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted December 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 I could probably do one or two lines on every match right now. I'll start on that and make a post for each year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdw Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 Someone could have fun going though this as a "review" or "discussion" project: Boston Idols Japan OLD History Who knows... it might inspire Frank to do the 1977-79 discs for this set. It does touch on a lot of stuff that you mention as "I need to see". A lot of stuff is Usual Suspects matches that are up on the web from time to time. But this collects them nicely in one place. Barnett of course has it. I suspect Will and others do. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdw Posted December 15, 2006 Report Share Posted December 15, 2006 Looking at what you just posted for 1975, it looks like you need to watch Dory vs. Horst. If you rate Dory vs. Abby and Jumbo vs. Horst that highly, I think you might have your new Match of the Year. It smokes them them, especially the Jumbo vs. Horst (since Dory-Abby isn't a direct comp). I actually like it better than the Baba-Race, but don't let that influence you. Just watch it in comp to those two other matches. Best Dory matches I've ever seen. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
